The Agricultural capabilities of the Island are great its Mineral products are acknowledged to be rich in yield and „ -7 °'ve Average value ; whil s t aroun d th e Coast there ar -)1u" extersive Fisheries, and an unlimited supply of Sea e;3., ,r M anure. The expense and trouble, however, of carriage, have hith erto ren d ere d th ese a d vantages co )3r" rn ..tively unavailable. Slate Quarries are in active operation; and the quality of the Slate is equal in closeness of grain and durability to any produced from the great Welsh quarries. The Granite near St. John's compares favourably with that now used in the Liverpool Dock Works, and would at once, by means of railway facilities, become available for export. One of the proposed Stations on the line will be at St. John's, where the Court s o f T ynwa ld meet, and which is also the centre of the Foxdale mining district. The produce g these mines is tiow brcught by land-carriage (there being lo water communication) to Douglas, a distance of nearly :en miles, Wallet Coals and othe r i m p or t an t mater i a l s, as well as an necessaries required by the inland population, 're conveyed into the interior by the same mode. Besides helm items of traffic, the Fairs, which are frequently held luting the year in this district, must add considerably to .na annual revenue of the Company. The principal towns are Douglas, Peel, Castletown, Ramsey, and Laxey : Douglas being the chief port, and the ;mat commercial depot, as well as the principal place of arrival and departure of the steam packets plying to and From the Island. At the port of Peel the fisheries are prin )ipally conducted, employing upwards of 1,000 vessels; [le place of destination for the produce is Douglas ; the route is tedious, and the transit by the existing means ex pensive. The access to the bland is easy, and the means of corn. nunication with Liverpool, Fleetwood, Whitehaven, Silloth, Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, and other ports, both by tailing and st3am vessels, are frequent and convenient. lence, Tourists visit the bland in large numbers, above ,00,000 p assengers h aving been landed at its Ports during he past year. Such Visitors, attracted by the antiquarian dice scenery, and other objects of i n t eres t, wou ld , as a natter of course, go by the proposed Railway from Douglas o the interior, and across the Island to Peel. The highest medical authorities bear testimony to the 'slubrity of the climate and purity of the water. The )icturesque is united with the more solid advantage of cheap iving, provisions being abundant and comparatively inex )ensive, whilst the rates of duties on foreign produce are so mall as to render the Island most advantageous as a per manent place of residence. Her Majesty's Government and the Local Authorities are tow expending upwards of £60,000, for the improvement of he Ports of Douglas and Peel The Electric Telegraph to England has been recently atablished. The Lines of Rail will be single, with requisite sidings. the length of Line will be about twelve miler, and the ;radients easy throughout. The landowners and popula ion along it are most favourable to the project. From Statistics recently collected on the spot, with much are, by competent persons, and well supported by Official teturns, it is confidently expected that the Traffic win re urn a good Dividend upon the Invested Capital, The fol owing is an Estimate of the Traffic : 'assengers, inclusive of Tourists £7,500 per annum. boods Minerals, Fish, & c 6,500 arcels and Mails 150 Vorking Expenses at even 50 per Cent. £l3 6,,500 'eaving for Dividend ................ £6,6b0 Plans, Sections, &e., of the Line arc completed, and all ecessary forms are being complied with, in accordance with he St riding Orders of the Court of Tynwald to obtain an Let of the Local Parliament. Neither Imperial or Local Taxes are levied in the Island, lid those heavy charges which tend so much to reduce the alue of Railway property in England and other countries, ,o less than to diminish the Shareholders' Dividends, can- Lot, in any degree whatever, prevail with respect to this vino. An eminent Contractor's firm have agreed to purchase he land, make the Railway, provide and fit up all Stations, irnish Rolling Stock for working the Line, and Telegraphs, pen satisfactory terms.

While exchange Banks an Credit Instillu`ions have been established to mane, t this country financially with almost every foreign market, and to give fact Dies for conveying to our shoret every descrii tion of merchandi e, it is remarkable that as soon as the operation of .mport'ng is performed the monetary facilitio. are withdrawn. The bills drawn upon our merchants mature, and must either be -net by the mer chant's capital u na ided, or by sales. Thu., when tempo rarily there is an excess of any commodity imported, its price is undo y depr , ssed, and s riin losses are incurre . Ordinary bankers and discount houses dislike making ad vances upon merchandise, having no organisation for exa mining the goods and correct y estimating their value. What they want are good bills, drawn on those who, know ing the value, have accepted for a fair advance. Division of labour is here as elsewhere found to be most convenient and profitable. To infect this want, which every merchant must acknow ledg% the Warrant Banking Company is formed. The bu 1- r." - ess of the Company will mainly consist in making dv .nces • upon deposit of the staple articles of produce, represented by dock warrants or other means of absolute assignment, duly inspected and valued on behalf of the Company, and with .a proper margin to allow for depreciation. These advances will be made in a 'ceptances by the Com pany of the drafts of its customers, and as every bill will re present mer handise readily convertible, and b at the same time secured by the whole ca• ital of a powerful Company, the exact position of which will be patent to al', there can be no doubt that the whole Dis ount Market will be available when it is desired by th' holder to turn the bill into c ,sh. It will be readily apparent that the existence of such an institution, while it will be of great service to merchants, an increase the stability of the entire class, will be an equal con venience to bankers and discount firms, furnishing them with a class of bills rarely obtainable. In order to render the due payment of the Company's acceptances certain, the Directors undertake that the entire paid-up capital of the Company will be invested, and, so far as practicable, remain invested in British and East Indian Government securities, and upon deposit at call, and it is proposed that the capital thus paid up and invested within the first year shall reach the sum of at least 0£200,000. , The field which exists for such an undertaking will be at once apparent from a glance at the Board of Trade returns of foreign impor s for the past year, which amounted (not to speak of home produce) to over £200,C00,000. If we estimate the average stock of for ign goods held in warehouse, as equal to three months' consumption, it would represent an amount of X 50,000,000. Advances may also be made when deemed advisable ucon Stocks and Shares, in permanent undertakings readily con vertible. A. re .sonable proportion will always be maintained be tween the extent of business undertaken and the cal ed-up capital. Should it be necessary, the latter will be increased to one million sterling, to be invested as already indicated, simply as a guarantee fund. Branches will, in due time, be established at Liverpool, Blanchester, Glasgow, &c. Tac Directors will not receive any remuneration until the shareholders have been paid £5 per cent. by way of dividend on their paid-up capital. Alter payment of 5 per cent. the Directors will receive one-fifth of the nett profits. No promotion money will be paid for originating this un dertaking. The preliminary expenses will be confined to the necessary disbursements Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be obtained of the brokers, bankers, solicitors, and at the tem porary offices of the Company, but no application for shares will be considered un'ess a deposit of £1 per share has been previon ly p , id to the bankers of the Company. In the event of no a lotment being made the deposit will be returned without deduction, and should the number allotted be 1-ss than the number applied for, the payment in excess will be applied towards the balance of the deposit.

Fly Fisher rushed to the front and jumped the water in front of the stand clear of Chester and Woodford, who were two or three lengths in advance of Lincoln, O'Connell going over fifth, and Emblematic, who alighted in the water, was last over. Going out of the course, after pro ceeding about hqlf a mile, Emblematic refused, and retired to the rear; but in the next 200 yards O'Connell and Ches ter also refusing, the Liverpool winner went on fourth, a long way, however, behind Fly Fisher. At this same fence Lincoln and Woodford swerved on the wrong side of a flag, but were soon righted, and after they had gone a mile and a half Lincoln took second place, Fly Fisher still holding the lead, but at such a slow pace that Woodford and Emblematic were within an easy distance of the other two.

The other three ran closely together until arriving in the course, where Woodford dropped away, and the other two raced over the last hurdles, in jumping which Fly Fisher stumbled, and his jockey went on to his neck.

AQUATICS, UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE. Compared with the dashing work in both the University boats at Putney yesterday, the previous performance of the crews might be considered insignificant ; both evidently were on their mettle, and their exertions gained for them the unqualified approbation of their friends, and augur well for a fine race on Saturday. Still there are some trifling defects which ere then will probably disappear. Ihe Cam bridge crew went out shortly after eleven o'clock from Symonds's yard with new oars supplied from his store, and not yet painted, their own sets, which they brought from Cambridge, being disapproved of. They rowed up against the tide to the Ship at Mortlake, where they made a fine start, and rowed the course down on the ebb. The whole distance was rowed at a bursting pace, commencing at 36 and reaching 37 or 33 strokes per minute, when they were well into their work, and they were well together in the pull, although close critics were of opinion that some of the crew still threw themselves a little too much back at the end of the stroke, by which they lose time, to say nothing of expending strength, without a com mensurate effect. Their pace was certainly very fast, the distance being accomplished in little more than 201 minutes. The Oxonians went out from the London Rowing Club boat-house, at about 12 o'clock, and rowed a little above the Ship before they turned to go off, and were then nearly on a level with Barker's rails. They went off at a fine pace, and getting into the celebrated Oxford swing almost immedi ately, came down at a fine pace, rowing at the rate of from 33 to 39 or 39 strokes per minute. Their pace was acce lerated towards the finish, and the time occupied was about 20f minutes and some five or six seconds less than the Can tabs, with a little more distance but a trifle more tide. Bet ting was 5 to 4 on Oxford, but neither freely laid nor taken The Stork steamer has been engaged by Henry Kelly, the ex-champion of the Thames, to convey spectators from Woolwich to accompany the race.

This was the claim of Sir William Somerville to vote at the election of representative peers for Ire. land as Lord Athlumney. The:letters patent were pat in reciting the Act of Union which gave power to the Crown to create one peer for Ireland on the extinction of every three Irish peerages, and also reciting that three Irish peerages having become extinct the Crown had created the petitioner a peer of Ireland. Mr. Sergeant Burke appeared on behalf of the claimant ; the Crown was unrepresented. The Lord Chancellor inquired during the course of the proceedings whether the house was bound to take the recitals in the letters patent as conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated. • Mr. Sergeant Burke repli e d th a t their L-44 ot n i ie! ips had always taken the recitals as sufficient e . ca le of the facts stated. - Lord Redesdale remarked that, although ihar ss a very bad practice, their Lordships were in the habit of admitting the facts so stated as proved, and he supposed they must do so in the present instance. The Lord Chancellor said that, whatever rule of practice it might be desirable for their Lordships to adopt in future, it would not be fair to the claimant to object to the reception of the evidence on the present occasion. He, therefore, moved that the claim had been satisfactorily made out. Claim allowed accordingly. LORD DE B LAQUIERE'S CLAIM. This was the claim of the Right Hon. Lord 1)e Blaquiere to vote at the election of representative peers for Ireland. The peerage was created in the reign of George. 111., and th e petitioner claimed as the eldest eon of the thi rd lord. Mr. Sergeant Burk e appeared for the claimant. Claim allowed. THE WENTWORTH PEERAGE. This was the claim of the Hon. Ralph Gordon Milbanke, commonly called Viscount Ockham, the only surviving son of William Earl of Lovelace, to Mr. Fleming and .Mr. Lu s hi ngton appeare d for the honour and dignity o f L ord Wentworth. the claimant, and the Attorney -General and Mr. Charles Clarke represented the Crown. The dignity of Lord Wentworth was created by writ of summons to Parliament in the 21st Henry VIII. in the person of Sir Thomas Wentworth of Nettlested. He was succeeded by his son Thomas, whose second son Henry held the dignity after his death. Thomas, the eldest son of Henry, was the fourth lord, and was succeeded by his son Thomas, whose only daughter Henrietta died without issue. Anne, Lady Wentworth, the sister of the fifth earl, succeeded to the title on the death of her niece, and married Sir William Noel, and the issue of their eldest son having become extinct, the title descended through their daughter Margaret to her grandson, Sir Edward Noel, who was created Viscount Went. the title descended through his d aughter Judith to worth in 1762. His son Thomas d y i ng without issue Anne Isabella Noel, who married George Gordon, the seventh Lord Byron, whose d aug h ter Augusta Ada Byron married William, the eighth Lord King, since created Earl of Lovelace. The eldest son of the Earl of Lovelace succeeded to the title of Lord Wentworth in 1860, but died unmarried in 1862, leaving the present claimant the eldest surviving son of the Earl. having sum me d up the evidence ad- Mr. Flemi ng duced on behalf of the petitioner, no defect i n th e proo f o f as he ra w , t h e cla i m had ts ht state ep h de e t t A i th t ao t t e r , n r, e hey-an d, nc o G d e sndoe finrfaa rd , in reply t o t h e i r lordships, been made out. The Lord o1;ancellor said he had no difficulty in advising their lordships that the petitioner had made out his claim. Claim allowed accordingly.

The visit of their Royal Highnesses was kept strictly private as far as anything like State ceremonial was con cerned ; but so far as popular reception, it was public enough. It was only known the night before that they would come to Woolwich at all, but that notice was amply sufficient to throng the streets with visitors of every class, who welcomed the royal pair with all those testimonies of affectionate respect which, though daily recurring,seem always fresh and hearty. The Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at Woolwich at half-past 1, and drove at once to the Arsenal, where the Talia— which in English - moans the Vanguard, was lying off the gun-wharf pier. Here a few of the chief officers of the Arsenal were in waiting in full uniform to receive the party, and here around the very prettily draped gangway which led down into the yacht were collected the rank and fashion of the garrison to do honour to the occasion. Hie Excellency M. Musurus, with Madame Musurus, Khalil Effendi, First Secretary of Legation, Messrs. Etienne and Paul Musurus, and Col. Ahmed Bey, met their Royal Highnesses on the pier. NG Royal salutes were fired, as the visit was a private 00; and, conducted by the Turkish Ambassador, the Princess went at once on board the Taiia, the Prince accompanying Madame Munn's. Lady De Grey was in attendance on the Princess, and Colonel Keppel on the Prince, and the Duke of Sutherland, with Lord Alfred Paget, had also the howour of accompanying their Royal Highnesses. On board the Talia were Mr. John Penn, the maker of the engines; Mr. Samuda, the builder of the vessel; and Mr. Holland, its decorator ; but, except these gentlemen, the visit, as far as regards those on board the steamer, was strictly private. Their Royal Highnesses, after a short stay on deck, re tired with M. and Madame Musurus to the State saloon till the vessel was well free of the pier, and with the Turkish stendard aft and the Prince's en• sign at the main, began moving down the river amid the cheers of those who had witnessed the embarcation. It was scarcely a day for a river trip. The clouds were heavy and hung low, just letting the muddy shore at half flood be dimly visible; on either side there was more than enough wind for a vessel that did not want to sail, and lumbering up across the stream were heavy galliots and barges, which look picturesque enough in Van dervelde's pictures, but nowhere else. Still the Royal party seemed to find charms in the scenery, or at least wished to see it, for almost directly after the vessel quitted Wool wich they came out upon deck, and the Princess, Madame Musurus, and Lady de Grey had chairs brought for them, and sat down aft, near the grand saloon, while the Prince of Wales went round and examined the vessel from stem to stern, from engine•room to dtockhole. _ . The Talia, though not by any means the first yacht which has been built for Sultans in this coun try—for, if we mistake not, the last Sultan bad nearly half a dozen—is at least the first that has been built for the present ruler of the Turks. Cer tainly, if one may judge from the perfection of finish of that on board which the Prince and Prin cess took a pleasant trip on Tuesday, his Imperial Majesty is not likely to need another for some time to come. It is needless to go into a mere ship broker's account of all her excellencies—it will be sufficient that she is built of iron on the most ex quisite model, and that within 260 feet by 28 feet, which is her extreme length and breadth, every recent improvement has been introduced into the hull which experience could sugge st . A MOM per fectly fitted, and, we may also add, a more beauti fully fitted steamer never left this country. Though her tonnage is only 900 , and though a grea t space is, of course, occupied by her engines and State saloons aft, yet the accommodation forward has been so admirably managed as to give c a bins and good messrooms to all the large staff of officers which are sure to be East. Like put on board of her in the almost all the Bosphorus boats, whether Sultan's or ferry steamers, the Talia is painted external White, with r i c h g ilt mouldings marking lines, her Like other Bosphorus boats, too, which have to steer among, ant: now and then avoid, the calques always that in summer are flit ting • like flies over its waters,wheel nlaced its t araids hiPs, on the bridge, so that the offie r 4 , 71 • has on evry side a clear view of all ' _ caiques which he has not actually run d0wn.i,....;;:t4 In the Talia this bridge-house' steering been introduced • into the Sultan'a• yachts for a the first time, because Abdul Aziz alway's co,,nmatAs the yacht himself, and when on board on a'. cruise drops his Caliphate to become its command m. It is in the State saloons of the Talia, however, the care with which the Sultan has watched el Try step in the construction of this beautiful vessol i s to be seen. Every pattern and every decoration, i tis said, were sent by the Sultan himself, and the res alt is a specimen of the most perfectly Oriental style of decoration, yet at the same time of the richt it, quietest, and most striking that we have ever see n. Tae Prince an d P r i ncess yesterday were most nest in th e i r pra i ses of its magnificent g ood ta: le. The whol e s t y l e may be described by say ing e B areomablal y so wo f r a k tn i i n i the panellin g i s ent i re!y composed of the patterns e o h f thev ges ame tric i work-boxes. These p a t terns and massive but tr. t iarsilovner t a h n e a li i • v d '' i l a s n quisitely out-g.;lass eDrnl , es, balustracle and hand-rails are the materials of rl - 1e decorati on( which are blended together with a shin and efiec,r, that cannot easily be described. There wr.s gre difficulty in getting the cut-glass work so to fit as t o avoid the risk of fracture from vibration ; but:. Messrs. Green, of Upper Thames-street, contrived it., somehow, though it is to be feared that the saloon will wear a different appearance after it has crossed the Bay of Biscay to what it wore yesterday. the Indian panelling, and, in fact, all the rest the decorations, were intrusted to Mecsrs. Holland. Yesterday was not the first trip of the Talia down the river. She had been tried once before at the mea sured mile on the Maplin Sands, when the average of her runs at the mile gave her 171 knots, or a little over 21 statute miles an hour. On that occosion her! engines, though only of 350-horse power, w arked u p to 2,500 indicated horse power, and made' 40 r'='4 volutions a minute, with a pressure of less' thar. 251 b of steam. There was no attempt made at Mil f speed yesterday, for, in the first place, the Talia vas t in deep sea trim and rather down by the head with coals, so that if the speed bad been wanted she coul not have made it, and, in the second place, the rive r was so crowded with shipping that it was difficn '.t to go a quarter of a mile without stopping or slos% ing. The Prince, as we have said, visited the en - g ne-room with Mr. John Penn and Captain Comp) th e - . Eluglish commander of the vessel, and Colon( J. Ahmed Dey. His royal highness remained som e time watchia?. the machinery, which was workin g with the appareot ease and perfect silence that seen is to belong almost exclusively to the finished ra 4- chinery of Messrs. Penn. There was only 201 b (af steam while the Prince was below, but even the n, while condensing, the engines were doing 33 rev 0 . lutions a minute, though the stroke was only five feet and the diameter of the cylinders 71 inches. At this time the Talia was running 19 trk ;les an hour by the land. 'When near Gravesend the rt. Tat party, with the members of the suite and the Tun kish Em bassy, retired to lunch, while the Talia kept srwiftly on her way down amid the crowds of shi;l,oing, which dipped flags as they neared the royal stanc lard and kept them down till the vessel was almost out of sight. When off Southend the wind was blowing sk) fresh that every part of the ship, which, with much. justice, claims to be perfectly ventilated, was as cool, below as on deck, which is saying a great deal. The wind, however, was little thought of, but the mama of black clouds that gathered round the horizon were so ominous of heavy rain that a little below Southend, near the Mouse Light, the Talia was put about, and, turning easily in a small circle, again headed up the river. Then, indeed, the cold strong wind was felt in all its bitterness. It seemed, however, to make no manner of impression on the Princess who, with Madame Musurus and Lady de Grey, had returned to the deck with his Royal Highness and sat as qu'etly in her chair as though the hard angry squall was a mere gentle breeze of the south. But their composure was not destined to last long.. 'When off Gravesend pier, where the Princess had nut been since the memorable day she landed there to meet her Royal husband, the long impending rain came down at last, and after a futile attempt to keep it out with wraps and shaws the Princess at last gave way, and made a fair run for the deck saloon, fol lowed quite as eagerly, though perhaps not quite so actively, by the other ladies. The run back averaged a little over 19 miles an hour, which, considering that the Talia was down by the head, and put forth. little more than three-quarter speed, augurs well of what she is likely to do in the smooth waters of the Bosphorus. At a little before 5 o'clock the yacht returned to Woolwich, and after taking a most cor dial farewell of M. and Mde. Musurus, their Royal Highnesses disembarked and drove back to town, having, to use their own expression, "enjoyed their trip most thoroughly." The Talia is all ready for sea now, but it is not expected that she will leave before Monday next. With such costly and fragile furniture it would al most be wiser if her trip across the Bay of Biscay were delayed till the equinox were past. But in whatever order her state saloons may arrive, cer tainly in machinery and hull a finer steam yacht will never have entered the Bosphorus.
